# Veysonnaz

Veysonnaz is a mountain village typical of the Valais canton, situated on a slope above Sion, with beautiful views over the Rhone valley and to the Bernese Alps. The hiking area extends right up to the high peaks of the Valais Alps. In winter, Veysonnaz forms part of the "Four Valleys" skiing area, with over 400 km of prepared slopes. 
The little resort of Veysonnaz, located at about 1200 m, is 13 kilometres by road from Sion, the capital of the canton of Valais. Far below is the broad Rhone valley, and opposite, the northern chain of the Valais Alps, with the wide glaciers of the Plaine Morte. To the west, you can see as far as the bend in the valley where Martigny is situated.
Veysonnaz combines a modern tourist infrastructure with its original village features and the authentic way of life of the upland and alpine economy. 
Cycle with a guide and discover the best of Valais on two wheels. Take advantage of a local mountain-bike guide who will accompany you on a half-day or a day of mountain biking adventures.
